possibly, run some fuel injector fluid through them, just put it in quite strong with 3/4 of a tank, and make sure the connectors on the injectors are clean and solidly connected.

Check the spark plugs to see if they are in good condition, change the HT leads, if the coil looks all cracked and really old then change that too. It really does help.

When the engine is running, check the battery voltage, if its around 11 12ish then the alternator isnt charging, so you could need a new one.
